Lace had become completely unavailable during World War II, and when the lace factories of Europe reopened, brides went for lace with a vengeance. The lace was often used as a whole piece of cloth, covering a satin or taffeta lining on the bodice of gowns. The top of the bodice and the sleeves could omit the lining to allow for a lace illusion neckline. Chantilly lace was also popular for the skirts of the wedding gowns; it was often used to create ruffled tiers on a full skirt. As an added accent, sequins and seed pearls were used on the gowns.

I got ready first and headed down to the ocean to a predetermined location where we were going to say our vows. My wife took her time to get ready and I recall feeling nervous waiting, just the same as I had 18 years earlier. After what seemed like an eternity, I looked along the walkway at the back of the beach and saw my bride, tanned and barefoot, strolling towards me. It was a moment I will never forget. She had a flower in her hair and looked stunning. We walked down to the beach and stood where we had planned, and spent a few minutes gazing at each other and soaking up the occasion. Then my wife shared her vows with me and my eyes welled up. A vow renewal is so powerful. I then nervously spoke my memorized vows to my sweetheart and we kissed.

Some say Steampunk is a sub-culture genre that mixes Science Fiction with Victorian era fashion. It can look a bit post-apocalyptic, and then again, it’s also kind of futuristic… It’s a world filled with sepia tones fused with rich jewel colored accessories, lots of bronze, brass and copper, with shapes of cogs and vintage typewriter keys. Fashions include plenty of lace-ups, corsets, buckles, hats, goggles, stripes and crinolines. In the traditions of the Delaware , a bride wore a knee-length skirt of deerskin and a band of wampum beads around her forehead. Except for fine beads or shell necklaces, the body was bare from the waist up. If it was a winter wedding, she wore deerskin leggings and moccasins and a robe of turkey feathers. Her face was painted with white, red and yellow clay. A bride can have her perfect wedding and substantially cut her wedding budget cost by doing one thing: Renting her Designer Dream Bridal Gown. By renting, a bride will spend only about 30 percent of a gown’s retail price or less. The bride picks up the wedding dress before the wedding and returns it to the shop after the wedding.

Mom and I then went to the fabric department at Sears (now I’m really showing my age-Sears once sold yard goods) to see which patterns came close to my ideal dress. After selecting a few, we checked the fabric requirements and did some math. Even with Mom’s employee discount, we were looking at over $70 for fabric alone.

However, I’ve discovered, with a little research ahead of time, taking into consideration your wedding style, formality, the weather, and most importantly, your body style, finding the perfect dress can become a much easier process.

I tell you why. The further away, the more expensive the dress will cost. Lets say the wedding is in June. You wouldn’t want to purchase the dress say in September (the previous year) because that month is popular for weddings as well. September starts the fall collection so naturally every dress is at regular sales price. The average price for a dress during the fall season ranges between $1,000.00-$3,000.00. The best time to purchase a wedding dress is in January because the stores has to get rid of the last year’s inventory. You will see a tone of reductions in January. illusion dress has a sophisticated look that can be worn in and out of the office.

The third dress featured is a gown with a sophisticated yet, youthful flare. This is an organza tulle and satin lined, street length dress. What I love about this wedding dress is its pure white color and how well it fits the top half of this woman’s body. It does not take a professional seamstress to see that this bride is a very well endowed woman. Even though this dress was altered to properly fit this bride, it would have been almost impossible to get any other style of dress, to look this amazing. Because of the strapless cut of the top half of this dress, a seamstress did not have to reconstruct the front half of the gown. Most alterations for the bustline, on …
